Given a strictly increasing array arr of positive integers forming a sequence, return the length of the longest Fibonacci-like subsequence ofarr. If one does not exist, return 0.
A subsequence is derived from another sequence arr by deleting any number of elements (including none) from arr, without changing the order of the remaining elements. For example, [3, 5, 8] is a subsequence of [3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8].
Example 1:
Input: arr = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8]
Output: 5
Explanation: The longest subsequence that is fibonacci-like: [1,2,3,5,8].
Example 2:
Input: arr = [1,3,7,11,12,14,18]
Output: 3
Explanation:The longest subsequence that is fibonacci-like: [1,11,12], [3,11,14] or [7,11,18].
Constraints:
3 <= arr.length <= 1000
1 <= arr[i] < arr[i + 1] <= 109
Solutions
Solution 1: Dynamic Programming
We define \(f[i][j]\) as the length of the longest Fibonacci-like subsequence, with \(\textit{arr}[i]\) as the last element and \(\textit{arr}[j]\) as the second to last element. Initially, for any \(i \in [0, n)\) and \(j \in [0, i)\), we have \(f[i][j] = 2\). All other elements are \(0\).
We use a hash table \(d\) to record the indices of each element in the array \(\textit{arr}\).
Then, we can enumerate \(\textit{arr}[i]\) and \(\textit{arr}[j]\), where \(i \in [2, n)\) and \(j \in [1, i)\). Suppose the currently enumerated elements are \(\textit{arr}[i]\) and \(\textit{arr}[j]\), we can obtain \(\textit{arr}[i] - \textit{arr}[j]\), denoted as \(t\). If \(t\) is in the array \(\textit{arr}\), and the index \(k\) of \(t\) satisfies \(k < j\), then we can get a Fibonacci-like subsequence with \(\textit{arr}[j]\) and \(\textit{arr}[i]\) as the last two elements, and its length is \(f[i][j] = \max(f[i][j], f[j][k] + 1)\). We can continuously update the value of \(f[i][j]\) in this way, and then update the answer.
After the enumeration ends, return the answer.
The time complexity is \(O(n^2)\), and the space complexity is \(O(n^2)\), where \(n\) is the length of the array \(\textit{arr}\).
